This game felt nice to play and the music game off a nice medieval ambience. The mechanics were cleverly made and the failed sound was funny. Good job! (Ghio)

This was absolutely amazing! The story was well-developed, the mechanics were easy to understand, the audio was incredible, and the transition between dimensions fit the theme so well!

Really really cool game! I like the story as well. The transition animation surprised me a bit.

Developer

Thanks!

We was impressed about the fact you were solo in the development of this game! Nice work really from our team. We've seen a lot of similar mechanics in other games like yours, but nobody did it perfectly like you! We appreciate the feedback and the switch between the two dimensions! You should go on with development of game, we need a continue :D

Developer

Thank you so much! I was thinking about exploring ways to continue the development of this particular idea, so a continuation is not off the table. I'm glad you liked it!

I'm really impressed that you did this solo during the timeframe allotted.  I think the movement shifting 1 square at a time was a bit cumbersome, but everything else about the game was done really well.  I thought the puzzle mechanic was very clever and enjoyed the drawings/story.

Developer

Thank you! The gameplay ended up being a bit slow, so I'll be sure to check out ways to make future projects play less sluggish.

Writing this portion as I'm playing, but the dimension shift feels AMAZING. I clicked the lute button and immediately said to myself "Oh this is wonderful!" Great use of a dimension shift mechanic and making it feel great and fun to use. 

This game is a huge standout and so much fun to play. The music is calming, the sounds feel great and appropriate. I love the character feeling like a miniature for a tabletop game and the way the puzzles layer on top of each other and none feel overwhelming. 

The art work in the story is also just beautiful. I can't enough good things about this. I can't wait to see the next thing you put out!

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it! :D

I'm always amazed by what some devs can do in game jams.  Great job! the game is very well made so I only have some nit-picky things to mention about how the sound effects can be improved. For example for repetitive one shot sounds you can get different variations of the sound and play them randomly 

all in all I enjoyed my experience. Especially when I got stuck between dimensions 

Developer

Thank you! The repetitiveness of the few sounds the game has was something that bothered me too, so I'll keep in mind to variate them in future projects.

Wonderful idea, amazing execution. The beginning of the story is excellent, and I like the art. Great SFX and music were also used. I like the sound effects when you lose. The level designs are incredible, and the gameplay itself is quite enjoyable. Well done!

Overall, good game. The mechanics are easy to understand and are well implemented. The story is really interesting too. 

Developer

Thanks!

First of all, volume slider is an instant win. Second of all, you actually made an interesting little puzzle game? Good Job! I loved this, it was so cute and the music was calming to listen to. Being able to tell whether it was safe to cross dimensions was such a small and neat detail and it really went a long way, well done

Developer

Thank you! :D

What a nice experience, i am always jealous of games that have clever level design :)

Developer

Thank you so much!

I like the story. The game would feel a lot more polished if the character is animated. Also, I would like to be able to click on a square (on the same row or column when there are no obstacles in between) and move there instead of having to click one square at a time.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

Thank you! I'll check it out.

Loved the game, I didnt like how repetative some of the sounds were and at times how slow the player was but I absolutely loved this, really fun! Good job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback! I'm guessing the lack of keyboard movement and song variety ended up hurting the game a little, and I'll keep that in mind!
